I had a chance to play with an iPhone X and it was not really a disaster. Swiping up from the bottom worked without any problem. But it is little too big to my taste. You can not really use it with one hand. But this changes person to person. I am guessing that Apple is investing and working hard on new technologies and tried to fit some of these new things to iPhone X. This is like a transition version to new devices that we may see in the future. When Steve was the boss, Apple's main priority was iPhone. But this has changed over the years. iPhone became the best phone as intended and now is the time to work on new things. Like all other phone companies, Apple also needs to release a new model every year to keep those money flowing into company. My advise would be that you buy the model that you need, but know that new things will be coming at much faster pace than ever.
